having been selected to goto Boy's Nation. Was there only ONE from each state? That's a pretty elite group right there.

It's so sad that although Clinton became president, he could never be as great as Kennedy. Pterodactyl Nov 2013 #8

We don't know how Kennedy would have ended his presidency. Beacool Nov 2013 #14

True. He could've messed up & become Clintonesque over time. But I prefer to remember him as great. Pterodactyl Nov 2013 #15
